Blunn Creek Nature Preserve and McKinney Falls State Park

Man, this picture takin’ thing is hard. I got off work yesterday at 5:45, which left enough time to hit up Blunn Creek Nature Preserve down the street from my place, where I met up with Jay and we went out to McKinney Falls state park, on Onion creek out toward the airport.

McKinney Falls is a pretty nice park, seems to be popular with fishermen. I got some pictures from the hikes, but they serve more as an object lesson to for what not to do. I put the less offensive ones up here.

Basically, I did a lot of walking around and snapping pics with no stabilization in fairly low light conditions, occasionally not even stopping. The E-10 lets in a lot more light than my old camera, but it don’t work no miracles. I couldn’t really get to the other side of the creek, which would have been best for taking pictures at sunset, and really need to get a polarizing filter so that my skies don’t suck so much.
